Completed acquisition of Magenta Master Fibers, expanding solutions portfolio of colorant and additives technologies for fiber applications
In addition to the unfavorable foreign exchange, the company realized revenue declines as a result of lower selling prices in Distribution and Performance Products and Solutions due to lower hydro-carbon based raw material costs and the ongoing integration of the acquired Spartech businesses.

Q11: Carbon Black and Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) show up as carcinogenic hazards on some of our SDSs, and
not on others.
In other cases, PolyOne has been advised by the suppliers of certain raw materials (carbon black and
titanium dioxide are two prime examples) that the classification of their materials as IARC category 2B
carcinogens are based on certain studies involving rats, and due to a toxicological phenomenon known as
“rat lung overload,” carcinogenicity seen in such rats is not believed to be extended to humans.
